Word for the day: “God’s love has lifted us.”
Beloved Leaders,
Today for Grace and Truth Leadership is “Love lifted me” day. As we consider the many challenges of this year 2024. Only the Love and the grace of God have kept us from succumbing to the polarizing times we are living in now. We wanted to give a shout-out to our amazing God for holding us up and keeping us together. We’ve had death, sickness, family crises, and emotional and spiritual trauma all happen to us, and yet still, we served our leadership assignment. We were able to do so only because God’s amazing love has sustained us. So, we share the words of the hymnal “Love lifted me”:
I was sinking deep in sin, far from the peaceful shore, very deeply stained within, sinking to rise no more, But the Master of the sea heard my despairing cry, From the waters lifted me, now safe, am I. Love lifted me! Love lifted me! When nothing else could help, Love lifted me!
I can't help but give God glory when I think about my story and the stories of many of you who subscribe to our Word Cup and are on this amazing journey with us. Whatever is going on in your life today, I wanted to remind you that God loves you and will sustain you. I know God favored us, great people of God, for such a time as this.
If you have ever felt God's love save you from the depths of despair, then you know God's power is real. You must know God loves you deeply! As we are in the final months of 2024, please remember to support and partner with us as we close this year out in God's love and grace!
